NIKI - CHIHUAHUA / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Mixed (short coat). Hi, I'm Niki, a 10 month old, 18 pound Chihuahua mix looking for my forever home! I am a very happy boy, with lots of energy. I love dogs and cats, so it would be awesome to have a playmate in my new home. I take time to warm up to new humans, but when I am attached, you won't get me out of your sight. I am house trained, crate trained, and love toys (while being supervised since I'm a puppy and eat things I shouldn't). I love snuggling with my human when I’m tired. My foster mom even lets me sleep in bed with her sometimes. I won't jump down, but I do use stairs to get on her bed. I cry when she leaves the bed cause I want down to follow her. I LOVE my humans' attention. I like to go on walks and car rides. I need a fenced yard so I can run and play freely, plus I love laying in the sun. I came into rescue as my owner was dealing with some really bad health issues. She loved me so much that she found it in her heart to do what was best for me. While in rescue, they found out that I needed surgery on my back right leg because it was shaped incorrectly and causing me pain. I am 9 weeks post op as of 3/25/25, and doing great! I am doing exercises and playing with my friends to rebuild the muscle in my leg so that I can use it properly. The vet says I am coming along well and that I am ready for my new family to find me. To adopt Niki, please complete an adoption application at peacelovepoms.rescuegroups. The $350 adoption donation ($250 for senior citizens 65+) includes core vaccines (Rabies, Parvo/Distemper, and Bordatella), Accuplex (Heart worm and Lyme test), fecal, microchip, bloodwork, neuter, and all the love you can handle!
